Cleaners

All metals need to be cleaned prior to electroplating, blackening, or finishing. Metalworking fluids and carbonaceous smut need to be removed in a soak, spray, electroclean, or ultrasonic cleaning. A properly cleaned part will have excellent adhesion and be brighter, blacker, and smut-free. Learn More

Eric Olander Visits New Chinese Distributor

Posted by Eric Olander on March 17, 2009

I just got back from China. I worked with John of EPi who is living in Guangzhuo, China our Asian Market Manager.

During my last visit, we went and called on EPi customers and potential new clients. The picture enclosed is me with Ms. Lu left side of picture and Ms. Du the President of our Chinese distribution company. Ms. Du has had much success selling Ultra Blak 407black oxide for stainless steel, B/Ox antiquing processes, and E-Teccorrosion inhibitors. Ms. Du's business is located in Foshan, China and she is looking forward to moving to a larger facility by June. I did find business slowing down in China as well. The planes were not as full either as the flight attendant stated that US travel to Asia is down.
